Abstract

Abstract: Chaotic semiconductor lasers are produced for applications in long-distance communication and for concealing modulated messages. In the present work, the dynamics of chaotic behavior in semiconductor lasers utilizing optoelectronic feedback have been investigated using the Optisystem software. Different parameters are controlled to get the optimum chaotic laser. An external perturbation is applied to the semiconductor laser output that has two control parameters, which are frequency and amplitude. Modulation is achieved by the variation in perturbation bias injunction currents while the modulation peak current is fixed. The study employs a delayed optoelectronic feedback diode laser to assess the ability to achieve chaotic output from directly frequency-modulated semiconductor lasers. This is done under various GHz modulation conditions while maintaining a fixed bias current. Keywords: Chaos, Semiconductor laser, Optoelectronic feedback, Optical communication.
